Lorelei awoke to the Sun's rays warming her face. She stretched languidly before opening her eyes. Smiling widely, she let her thoughts drift back to last night. She had been meeting Peter in the clearing for the past week now. They would swim, talk about their lives, and snog each other senseless. It was perfect. Except for one thing, well almost. Despite all of the time they spent together, Peter had never once called her his girlfriend.

She climbed out of bed and went over to her dressing stand and washed up. After brushing her teeth, she unplaited her hair and began to brush it out, letting her mind wander with the task. Chewing her lip, she debated the issue over in her mind. Lorelei had never had any real experience with boys, but she figured the rendezvous they had made them a couple. But on the other hand, Peter had never said they were exclusive. Maybe she was just something to past the time. Lorelei set down her brush and mentally shook herself.

"Stop it," she thought. She had been trying harder than ever not to let her mind pick at what she and Peter's situation was.

"He's not using you, so just stop thinking like that."

Huffing at herself one last time in the mirror, she gathered her hair into a bun, and quickly dressed in her training clothes. Lorelei had a training session with Eli this morning. She felt a stab of guilt as she realised she hadn't really been spending time with him lately; she had been wrapped up with Peter. She hoped he wasn't upset with her about that.

Quickly slipping on her boots, she tied her Aslan scarf on top of her head. Aslan hadn't been to visit her or Narnia in awhile. With a start, Lorelei realised how much she missed him. Letting out a sigh and praying that he was alright, she slipped out of her tent, and went to the clearing to wait for Eli.

She didn't have long to wait before she heard his hooves.

"Hey Kid! What's the crack? I haven't seen you in donkey's!"

Lorelei grinned hard as she hugged Eli.

"I know! I'm really sorry. I've been… busy" Lorelei blushed slightly at the end of the statement, praying that Eli would pester. Of course he never listened.

"Ohhhh, Kiddy's got a boyfriend, Kiddy's got a boyfriend!" Eli keep singing his song and dancing around Lorelei until her face got so red she felt it might explode.

"You just shut your mouth, you, you, arse!"

Eli finally stopped dancing, but only because he was doubled over laughing.

"Kid, I don't think I've ever heard you curse," he managed to choke out in between chuckles.

"Yes well if you're quite done having a go at my love life with your fat gob, you might want to teach me some lessons."

Lorelei crossed her arms over her chest and pouted. Eli tried hard to keep his laughter in check. He adored Lorelei. She had so much energy and life it was no wonder half the squad was head over heels for her. With her dark skin, lithe form, and beautiful eyes, Eli had to admit she make quite a cutting figure. He smiled fondly at her and wrapped his arms around her stiff form.

"My apologies lil' sis. It's not often I can up you."

Lorelei slowly relaxed in his arms.

"You're forgiven Eli" she said a smile threatening to overwhelm her face. "But don't think that you're free just yet. I'll find some fit little centaur girl that has your fancy. And then it'll be my turn to take the mickey out of you."

Eli squeezed her once more before he let go. "Like you don't do that enough already. Now let's get the equipment and get to work."

A couple of hours later found Eli and Lorelei soaked with sweat and covered in dirt. They had practised stick and sword combat, hand to hand combat, and had done a little drill work to round it all out. Lorelei sat down on a tree stump and plucked her sweaty clothing from her body, trying vainly to circulate some air.

"Throw me the water jug, you task master."

Eli, too tired to find a witty response, just smiled and tossed her the jug.

Lorelei took a long pull and then splashed a good portion of it on her face. She stood up and walked over to the spot where Eli was lying. She collapsed beside him, closing her eyes and enjoying the rest. Basking in the sun, she said "So what's for lunch?"

Eli sighed. "I dunno. I'm too knackered to cook. How about a box lunch? (A/N: a box lunch is really a ploughman's lunch which contains a hunk of bread and cheese and a pint. Narnia wouldn't know about such a thing, so I changed its title.)

Lorelei chuckled. "You lush. A bit early for a pint dontcha' think?"

"Lore, it's never too early" a voice said above her. Opening her eyes, Lorelei peered up into the amused face of Peter. With a yelp, she jumped up, painfully aware of her sweaty clothing and dirt streaked face.

"Pe- Peter. I, I didn't know you were around."

Peter smiled. "It was meant to be a surprise."

Lorelei forced a smile on her face. As always, Peter was immaculately dressed with out a speck of lint on him. She felt her face grow red.

"Um, me and Eli were just training."

Peter laughed a bit. "I could see that. I was wondering what you were doing for lunch."

Lorelei could hear Eli starting to giggle. She kicked her foot out behind her and was satisfied when she heard a grunt as a result.

"Well I guess I'll be eating with you. But let me clean up. Meet you in our clearing in 30, yeah?"

"It's a date. I'll see you later Eli."

With that, Peter grabbed Lorelei's hand and placed a kiss on the back before he turned and left.

As soon as Peter was far away, Eli jumped up, and began dancing around Lorelei singing his song from earlier this time replacing boyfriend with date.

"Oh do shut up will you," Lorelei snarled, but the effect was ruined by the fact that she had a huge grin on her face.

Peter had just finished laying out the lunch spread when he heard Lorelei coming through the trees. Wiping his hands on a towel, he turned to meet her. Letting his eyes linger over her frame, he smiled his appreciation. She was wearing an oversized sky blue blouse that keep falling down her shoulders. It was belted at her waist by a leather tie and hung over her black leggings. Her hair hung in soft waves down her back. Ever since he had told her that he loved her hair down, she had taken to wearing it like that. Lorelei walked over to him and placed a gentle kiss on his lips.

"Here there captain."

Peter smiled at her use of nickname. Ever since he had brought her to practise with him, she teased him about his leadership skills.

He tweaked her nose as they settled down for a lunch of cold chicken sandwiches and ice cold cordial. When he saw Lorelei yawn, Peter spread out a thick wool duvet on the ground. When the laid down, Lorelei scooted closer to Peter and laid her head on his chest.

"Hey Peter? Can I ask you something?"

"Sure Lore."

"Well…" Lorelei paused unsure of how to phrase her words.

"Well, we've been seeing a lot of each other lately, yeah? I mean, we spend nearly every night together, talk all the time, and I've been over for dinner more times than I can count."

Peter chuckled. He was cottoning on to what Lorelei was asking. Grabbing her hand, he laced their fingers together.

"You want to know if we're a couple don't you?"

"Well, do you want to be?"

Peter's way of saying yes was kissing Lorelei with all his might.

A/N: Well there you are my lovely readers. I hope you enjoyed it. It was a filler chapter to show how the relationship of Peter and Lorelei has grown more than anything. I have a question for you mates: how does one make a banner for a story. And if you have any ideas for one, let me know or send me one. Ta' in advance. Rate and review!!
